Adoption

NAR: It's been almost a year... :(

This September marks one year since my niece was stillborn at 26 weeks. I'm feeling really sad about it already, and I know my sister and BIL must already be thinking about it too. They've started training to be foster parents after struggling with IF for 8 cycles (I know that's not very long for some IF veterans out there), so I know they are pursuing growing their family...

Sometimes I just can't stop thinking about the little girl that I love so much but never got to meet. I guess I am just sad this morning.

  • Sorry to hear that.  It is hard.  My sister miscarried at 12 weeks recently and I can't help but think about it every now and again..and I know when the due date approaches (end of Jan/early Feb), it's going to be on everyone's mind.  It is sad, but I guess I just try to focus on the fact that they have a beautiful 1 year old daughter.  We always knew she was a blessing but even more so now.
